The Fly Fishing School at Habersham Mill

We are pleased to participate in the Habersham Mill Fly Fishing School - an intensive 2-day course designed for novice and intermediate anglers. The school combines classroom instruction, casting practice and actual fishing time.

This is the best place for you to learn how to enjoy the sport. If you have never held a fly rod, we'll take you through the basics. If you have some experience, we'll help you take your skills to the next level.

We have done everything possible to make this the top fly fishing school in the country. Our instructor to student ratio is high (1 to 3). The instructors are seasoned full-time professionals

Unicoi Outfitters Loves to Teach

We like nothing better than sharing the fondness we all have for fly fishing, and enjoy teaching others to fly fish. We hold regular classes in beginning fly fishing and fly tying, and occasional intermediate and advanced classes. We are also home of the "Gilligan Special" - the three hour tour that leads to a lifetime of adventure. We have had many clients whose first hands-on exposure to fly fishing was the Gilligan, and had it lead to a strong life-time interest in the sport.

We also partner with others, such as the Atlanta Fly Fishing School, and Georgia Women Fly Fishers in our attempts to better educate the fly fishing public.

Full Service Fly Shop

In addition to our guide and teaching services, Unicoi Outfitters operates a well-stocked full-service fly shop, carrying some of the best fly-fishing brands available anywhere. We are happy to take orders over the phone and ship to you, or even better, have you visit our shop on the way to the stream. Or if you'd rather, you can shop online at shoponline.unicoioutfitters.com. Shipping is free on orders over $200, and if you purchase a premium rod from us, we sweeten the deal with a complimentary half-day of unguided trophy trout fishing at Nacoochee Bend.

You are also welcome to come by or call for fishing reports, ideas of where to go, or just generally jawing about fly fishing. For even more info, check out the Liars Club Blog and join the Liars Club to receive our monthly email newsletter of fly fishing news relevant to all who fish North Georgia.

Unicoi Outfitters is your professional resource for all things fly fishing in North Georgia.
